DLL COVID-19 Spring 2022 Protocols
Downtown Little league is committed to maintaining a safe environment for our participants. Currently we are adhering to NYC DOE protocols when it comes to contracting or being exposed to Covid-19.
These protocols are as follows:
Isolation Period
The isolation period for children in grades K-12 with a positive COVID-19 test result has been shortened to five day from ten days. This means if your child tests positive for COVID-19 and is in kindergarten or higher, your child can return to DLL activities on Day 6.
Children in Pre-K and under who test positive for COVID-19 still must isolate for 10 days.
Please be aware that any child (in any grade) who has completed their isolation period is NOT required to show proof of a negative test result before being allowed to return to school or work.
Quarantine for COVID-19 Exposure
The quarantine period for children exposed to COVID-19 has been shortened.
If your child is NOT fully vaccinated and was exposed to COVID-19 outside of a school setting, your child must quarantine for at least 5 days; this is reduced from 10 days.
Please remember to follow these important actions to prevent COVID-19 transmission:
1. Stay home if sick (except to get essential medical care, including COVID-19 testing).
2. Wear a face covering if you are symptomatic or exposed to reduce the spread of COVID-19.
3. Practice healthy hand hygiene: Wash your hands often or use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer; avoid touching your face; and cover your cough or sneeze with your arm, not your hands.
